Nice on the dingers! Stetson owns us again though.

What's up with this Sun Belt conference and baseball . 

WE could ask the same about football we did lose to UTSA, UAB, FAU, and WKU last year.  Now we better be ready to whoop the hell out of them next year.

We’ve now lost 9 of the last 11. It’s a perplexing team, for sure.

It is almost like Billy Mohl wants to be fired. IF they even sniff 0.500 for the rest of the season games left, I would be shocked.

100% agree. RB and DB/Safety positions need the biggest gains for the program to make significant progress.

Is your name a reference to arrested development? If so well played.

Lol.  Thanks, but I'll live in my blissful ignorance.

Smart coice. Not a good update. I will leave it at that. I will let you know if the bats come back.

ESPN+ is messing up on me.  Hope it straightens up.  I'd like to catch what's left of the game.

Do you want me to tell you what is happening? It isn't good currently. Down by 1, they have a runner on first and third with one out, and we are going to the bullspen. We still have some hope to comeback, but got to get out of the inning and respond with the bats.

WE need a win tonight to not go on another losing streak and to motivate the team to show up against the #5 Purple Pirates in Greenville. WE got Stetson, ECU, Florida, UTSA, and UAB left. This is going to be the toughest test for this team. The team left on our schedule that plays worse baseball than USF is possibly UAB. Florida has the same record, but their schedule is a lot stronger and so is their conference.  Since it is a weekday game we should have a puncher's chance to get a knock out if we are coached better. There is only one win difference in conference between the two teams, so I would not even say we are favored versus them.

Is he claiming he is a former bull or buffalo?

Probably more of the latter. Guessing he has his guys already. 

RB room definitely needs to take a step forward. Wright was solid last year, but not game breaking. Joiner hasn't shown enough to be that guy because he can't stay on the field. Powell like joiner can't catch a break. Ideally like to see someone else besides the qb have the most carries and yards.

The daytime renderings are not the advanced renderings he was speaking of.

I believe he mentioned on a BullSpeedAhead podcast that the advanced renderings would detail interior club, interior of ops building, etc.

Does it include water fountain layouts ? John, I know we have a brewmaster degree now. Usf should have a usf brewery outside and inside the stadium selling beer made by USF brew mastery program. If not.maybe tap a keg for quality control and tasting purposes at the official usf tailgates.

Conferences want schools who will make them the most money. They don't care who earns it by winning. (ex Boise)

Winning doesn't matter (ex Rutgers) ....... but - schools that win, often are the ones who can make conferences the most money as they draw the most tv viewers.

Yes we want to win, always, but a narrative "we haven't earned it" is not a factor. With many schools just being in the right place at the right time is what matters. 

Did DePaul earn their way into the Big East? Did Maryland and Rutgers in the Big 10? Does Vandy belong in the SEC? Wake in the ACC?  

Yes win, I love winning, but we don't need to wait until we won "enough". 

 

Vandy has been in the sec forever. I fact the Vanderbilt are some of the wealthiest and most influential families in American history. The university is one of the most influential research universities and gives the SEC the Nashville market keeping it from anyone else. They are very dominant at other sec sports such as baseball.  Almost the whole state of Tennessee roots for the vols unless you have a direct  tie to Vandy. The sec has most of the oldest and most powerful universities and they are by far the best conference for all sports overall. Being in the sec is the goal for any college athletic program, but I don't think we will ever get there.  The sec unlike the B1g is a regional conference. All of their programs are not far from their east and west division opponents. They were smart to add Mizzou,tamu,Ok, and Texas. 

Not sure it sells out.  Last time they came to usf it wasn't a sellout and we were  a better program. Miami fans only show up in numbers when they are good. If they were undefeated or think it is a big game more U fans will show up. 

The rat pack ran vasi in game w and goal was allowed.  A lot more contavt was made on that goal than either  of the goals taken away tonight. Coop said it best after the game. 

Bolts coach Jon Cooper went on a near 4-minute rant in today's postgame about goalie interference and his team's two disallowed goals tonight vs Florida:
"This is clearly a turning point in the game... to pull a goal off the board it has to be unbelievably egregious. I couldn't find anything remotely egregious on the first one."
"The next one... I will give [Bobrovsky] credit. He completely quit on the play, then flailed ... he duped them and so be it."
"Is it net-front battles aren't allowed anymore? The boxing out is like prison rules in the playoffs but it's not prison rules for the goalie? We might as well put skirts on them then, if that's how it's gonna be. They have to battle through stuff too ... I think we're letting the goalies off the hook."

It was a great run for the lightning. Jbb  officially  closed the cup window for the bolts for a king's ransom for jeannot and his offseason raise he didn't earn or live up to. We should have traded for a top 4 instead of Jeannot.

Low risk and high reward kind of move. Bringing in a big local body that can possibly be coached up while building back our local recruiting pipelines. WE had several offensive linemen transfer out freshmen Perez and the Vandy transfer.

The list up above was a pic so thanks for linking it. Not sure why it didn't pop up when I Googled his name/247, usually works. Guess I'll need to to go to each site now.

I had to do some digging to find it. I think it has to be with he isn't a rated recruit.

But BullsMatrix told us we are getting in the ACC any day now. I think he has as much real insider information as Swaim and CW Lambert. Do we trust the OK State , WVU, or USF hype man?

Thanks. That last one looks like it's from a recruiting site so I guess my Google skills let me down .....

Last one was from 24/7  I linked it .

Don’t remember the exact lineup. But, I don’t think he had a true 1, 2, or 3 prior to the season.

He had names and OR between names.

Hopefully they’re all rowing in the same direction.

Good one. Do you remember lsat years depth chart?

RB Wright or Joiner or Dukes 

I think it had alot to do with Golesh trying to hide the depth chart a little or figure out what he had over the first few games until he found his guys.

14 minutes ago, Triple B said:

Where did you find one?

Click his twitter and scroll down. Not bashing him . I trust Golesh he coached a team that one won fbs game in the previous three seasons up into 6 fbs wins, 4 conference wins, and a bowl win.  You don't need a team or 4 and 5 star recruits to win in the AAC. You need guys that will outwork the other team and lay it all on the field every play every game. I think he maybe a PWO ready to put in the work.

I can't wait for the preseason depth chart to see all the ors again.

Fans can't as a group make good decisions in the best interest of the program.  But I hear ya. 

However, a large part of the attraction was USF avoiding the tinmen for so long. 

We didn't want to be them and that's exactly what happened.

Sadly Judy and her cronies didn't think losing to them was a bad thing and neglected athletics while the knights invested im athletics and priotized winning. We got AAU status and they got a power conference. Thanks Judy. I hate to say it but I would rather be in a power athletic conference playing better teams than being an AAU university. My boss didn't give me a raise nor does he care. I have not had one person say man you went to an AAU university . 

We had a guy that was 1000% committed change his mind. So... the % doesn't mean much until they sign.

Big body. His offer list isn't good so they found a diamond in the rough or think he can be coached up! You can never have enough big bodies in the trenches.

It makes no sense that a major university in the south can’t find talent to field a better than a 500 baseball team. That is 100% recruiting which is 100% the coaching staff.
